Summary

Menifee County High School is a public high school located in Frenchburg, Kentucky, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 279 students. The school is part of the Menifee County School District, which is ranked 150 out of 157 districts in Kentucky and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Menifee County High School consistently performs below the state average in various academic assessments, including KSA (Kentucky Summative Assessment) and ACT. The school's proficiency rates in mathematics, reading, and writing were significantly lower than the state averages in the 2024-2025 school year. While the school's four-year graduation rate ranges from 92.2% to 96.2%, which is generally on par with or slightly above the state average, its dropout rate has been fluctuating between 0.0% and 2.6%, which is higher than the state's average. Additionally, the school has a chronic absenteeism rate that ranges from 24.0% to 28.0%, significantly higher than the state average.

Interestingly, the school's spending per student has fluctuated between $20,541 and $30,928 in recent years, which is higher than the state average, yet the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 10.6 to 12.1. This suggests that the school may not be effectively utilizing its resources to improve student outcomes. When compared to nearby schools, such as Montgomery County High School, which performs significantly better in academic assessments and has a higher graduation rate, and Wolfe County High School, which also struggles with academic performance but has a higher graduation rate and lower chronic absenteeism, Menifee County High School's challenges become more apparent.
